Quantitative survey assesses Facebook's role in aviation safety practices among 100 students, indicating the need for credible sources.
Facebook is widely used for communication, networking, and education. In aviation, it supplements learning on safety procedures and maintenance practices, but faces challenges such as misinformation, content verification issues, and limited access due to algorithm changes and connectivity limitations. A study by second-year Aircraft Maintenance Technology students at Indiana Aerospace University (A.Y. 2024–2025) used a quantitative approach, a survey of 100 students, to assess Facebook's role in promoting safety awareness, peer interaction, and technical knowledge. A five-point Likert scale with weighted mean and ranking measured effectiveness. Results showed Facebook is useful for learning when combined with credible sources, structured content, and digital literacy, highlighting the need for critical and responsible social media use in aviation education.
